Prabhupada: Their policy is that they want to keep the people in that
way-rascals and fools — then they’ll vote and they’ll enjoy the political
power. That is their policy. Actually they do not want to see their
countrymen elevated good character. They don’t want to see. If the people
become… Just like the British government in their time, they wanted to
give education. Their education means A-B-C-D, half-mediocre, so that the
government may be run on. They require clerks, servants, so much, not high
education. As soon as there was question of high education, they stopped.
And actually it so happened that as soon as the Indian people became highly
educated and they learned the history of the world, they kicked them out. So
these people, these rascals, Nixon and company, they want to keep the people
in ignorance so that they’ll get vote and enjoy. If the people become
intelligent brahmanas, then immediately he’ll be kicked out. What is his
value? He has no value. This is policy. They don’t want to see that people
become elevated in knowledge. That is not their policy. Therefore, they do
not agree. Actually they are seeing that “These Hare Krsna people, they’re
so nice character, they’re religion, God conscious, so if all people become
like this, then where we are?” Because as soon as people become Krsna
conscious, they’ll noncooperate with the slaughterhouse, liquor industry,
gambling, illicit sex. They will noncooperate. Then the whole plan of
civilization will be collapsed.
Atreya Rsi(?): Their biggest industry is the war industry.
Prabhupada: Yes.
Atreya Rsi(?): War, killing.
Prabhupada: So, how they can (indistinct)? They do not know and do not
actually want to see people enlightened. It is not their policy. It is
simply make some show. Show means spend another set-up amount,
investigation. Their men, the government men, they’ll get money, that’s all.
Atreya Rsi(?): Jaya.
Prabhupada: And finished. Engage some rascal report. This is going on.
Atreya Rsi(?): Exactly, exactly.
Prabhupada: Very dangerous.
Atreya Rsi(?): They are all thieves, Prabhupada.
Prabhupada: Eh?
Atreya Rsi: Thieves, stealing from each other.
Prabhupada: That’s all. They don’t want to see people very enlightened. “It
is folly to be wise where ignorance is bliss.” But at least how to become
wise, that injunction has been given to you. Now you try to save the
country, how to do it. These people will not be. You’ll have to educate the
people, and they’ll vote you to the senators, president, and then your
country will be nice. Just like by Kuruksetra, Krsna smashed all Duryodhana
and company, and He posted Yudhisthira Maharaja. That is the Krsna’s
politics.
